Uzbekistan youth boxing team won World Championship
Boxing Federation of Uzbekistan
"Definitely, this is a historic event. For the first time Uzbekistan took the first place in score ranking of the World Youth Championship. And, the last two stages were equally tense, because in semifinals our young athletes faced off reputed Cuban boxers, while uncompromising bouts with representatives of Kazakhstan added dramatic touch to the final. It is very important and valuable that not only our male boxers, but also talented female athletes of our national team made their contribution to winning medals of various denominations ranging from gold to bronze ones.
But, the main outcome is as follows: our star athletes of today have eligible successors, and national boxing's future is bright", – Saken Polatov, Deputy Chairman of Uzbekistan Boxing Federation noted.
